It stated its own views without recognising or considering that there was a range of reasonable responses in respect of the matters in issue and deciding whether the employer’s actions and opinions fell within the range. It decided the wrongful dismissal claim without any real separate reasoning as if it followed from the unfair dismissal claim. Appeal allowed. Case remitted for re-hearing afresh before a different Tribunal. Last Update: 04-Sep-15 Ref: 551789
